<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Paul M., post: 2508845, member: 73165&quot;]Dang it, now I have to get me a pigasus coin. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>I got started pretty simply: I bought an ancient coin, liked it, bought another few.&nbsp; I&#039;m up to like 7 ancients now -- nothing compared to what most of you have -- but I really enjoy them.</p><p><br /></p><p>I still collect modern US coins, and I approach ancients in somewhat the same way: I look for well-centered, boldly struck coins with clear legends when available.&nbsp; These predilections have lead me to want to acquire as full a set of Antoninus Pius denarii as possible, since his coins are very available, and frequently come very nicely struck/etc.</p><p><br /></p><p>I will probably never in my life put together a set of Morgan dollars except by accident, simply because I don&#039;t see the point of having 95 coins that mostly look alike except the date and mint mark (yes, I know, VAMs, but blah).&nbsp; I would much rather have the 200+ reverse types of Antoninus Pius than a Dansco album full of, well, anything (except a 7070 type set, lol)![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
